Instance Method Summary

• #sample!(trace) ⇒ Boolean

  Returns true if the provided trace should be kept.

• #sample_rate(trace) ⇒ Float^?

  The sampling rate, if this sampler has such concept.

Instance Method Details

#sample!(trace) ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if the provided trace should be kept. Otherwise, false.

This method may modify the trace, in case changes are necessary based on the sampling decision.

Parameters:

• trace (Datadog::Tracing::TraceOperation)

Returns:

• (Boolean) —

  should this trace be kept?

Raises:

• (NotImplementedError)

# File 'lib/datadog/tracing/sampling/sampler.rb', line 17

def sample!(trace)
  raise NotImplementedError, 'Samplers must implement the #sample! method'
end

#sample_rate(trace) ⇒ Float^?

The sampling rate, if this sampler has such concept. Otherwise, nil.

Parameters:

• trace (Datadog::Tracing::TraceOperation)

Returns:

• (Float, nil) —

  sampling ratio between 0.0 and 1.0 (inclusive), or nil if not applicable

Raises:

• (NotImplementedError)

# File 'lib/datadog/tracing/sampling/sampler.rb', line 26

def sample_rate(trace)
  raise NotImplementedError, 'Samplers must implement the #sample_rate method'
end
